I think we can all agree, Froch got lucky and was losing that fight.

I feel like practically every single thread on these forums is either full of trolls, fanboys who back one fighter at the expense of all logic, or fans so casual they honestly believe the idiotic statements they preach. I don't think I've posted more than twice in two years because of this. It's gone from regular intelligent boxing conversations to an exercise in futility to discuss the sport here.

Good fight last night. The younger Groves started solidily, was having success and winning rounds early, and then at the end of round 4, a round Groves still won, Froch came on with that late body barrage; and won every subsequent round until he knocked George out.

Call it an effective game plan, or experience prevailing, but luck? I wonder if some posters just put the fight on, walk out of the room, and put on cartoons while they ********** in the next room. I'm beyond frustrated with the discussions here.

Take care.

Groves left hand down by his socks ,follow by Froch right hand is a misery for any fighter. Nothing good is going to happen.

Was clearly losing the first fight and lucky stoppage,
Was being outfoxed by an inexperienced kid lastnight and landed a lucky punch.

Groves has fought no one and was made look world class by an overrated Carl Froch.

I think he should retire.

You're the "CEO" of boxigscenes "Money Team" yet were supposed to take you serious?

I suppose you could say grooves was winning.............


If it was a 4 round fight

Incase you didn't notice...

Groves was infact actually pacing himself and he wasn't tired, I know its surprising actually really shocking and a hard analysis to make!
So by you saying Groves was tiring in turn you're discrediting Froch's win, well done.

It's part of a game plan for a lot of fighters. When you know a fighter is faster than you then you try to wear them out and get them tired so that they slow down. That's why Carl was throwing power punches to the body, to tire George out and make him slow enough to time him nicely. It worked.

I agree that Froch is the ****ing man and nearly put Groves to sleep last night.

Dumb thread

Froch was up on my card, actually. Gave him the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th. Thought the first round was close too. Groves landed the harder jabs (as they exchanged jabs) but froch had a right hand that landed that could have spun it his way in the first.

All in all, from the 4th round on you could visibly see Groves being broken down. Froch began opening up more, his body shots were definitely taking their toll. Groves punches started slowing down and he became more reluctant to take the center of the ring (as he did first 3 rounds with froch) and was scaling the ropes more and more.

It was obvious what direction the fight was going IMO. The Punch shocked the hell out of me. I foresaw groves folding under a flurry of some sort after breaking down.. not getting flattened.

But, again, the right hand landed because he had slowed down from the body shots. Froch threw that punch quite a few times to no avail.. eventually his work got groves to slow down just enough to where it would start landing.

It was systematic. One of the best performances I've seen from Froch. It was a very educated and experienced fight for him. Kill the body, the head will follow.

I had Groves up 5-2. But if you look in the 6th Froch was already banking the later rounds with vicious body punches. Before "The punch that ended all punches" he cracked Groves with a short right upper that turned his head, I knew then he was hurt.
